Analysis physico-chemical parameters of ground water of municipal area of Bijapur (Karnataka) was carried out seasonally to study the quality of water and suitability for domestic purpose. Talabs (Lakes), Baudy (Wells constructed by Adil Shahi Sultans in 16th &17th century ) and bore wells are water resources of the study area. Thirty six samples from different sources at different locations were collected in different seasons during Year 2010-11. The parameters: pH, EC, TDS, Turbidity, Total hardness and content of Fluoride, Sulphate, Chloride  were studied and compared with the standard values prescribed by ICMR, WHO and APHA. The present investigation revealed that the quality of water of a source varies from season to season and some of the water samples are unfit for drinking and utility purpose.
